Intro
C#m A E C#m A E
[Verse 1]
C#m
Never spoken with my mouth full
A E
Yeah that's a mouthful and I'm doubtful
C#m
That I could get these lyrics out, oh
A E
'Cause I think fast but I sing slow
C#m
If I ever started rapping
A E
They'd be laughing, they won't believe me
C#m
But I got so much I wanna say
A E
So I'm thinking rappers, they got it easy
[Interlude]
C#m A E C#m A E
[Verse 2]
C#m
Someone told me to be selfless
A E
But we are helpless without attention
C#m
So if no one's paying attention
A E
Then does my voice get to your headphones
C#m
You start thinking 'bout the clock ticks
A E
You get nervous, you start stressin'
C#m
So how am I supposed to fit this
A E
In three minutes and thirty seconds
[Chorus]
A C#m B
Listen to my aching heart
A C#m B
Quick, before you skip the song
A C#m B
We are human after all
A E B C#m
And we don't stay for long
[Verse 3]
C#m
Someone told me to be selfless
A E
But we are helpless without attention
C#m
Wealthy people learn the lesson
A E
And never donate without the press there
C#m
You wanna skip it if it's wordy
A E
But fit the whole song in three-thirty
C#m
I thought I had the ADHD
A E
But that's a real thing and I'm just lazy
[Chorus]
A E B
Listen to my aching heart
A E B
Quick, before you skip the song
A E B
We are human after all
A E B
And we don't stay for long
[Instrumental]
A E B
A E B
[Chorus]
A E B
We are human after all
A E B
And we don't stay for long

[Outro]
A E B
Listen to my aching heart
A E B
Will you keep this record on
A E B
If Ed Sheeran writes my song
A E B
I'll finally top the charts
A E B
A E B
A E B
If Ed Sheeran writes my song
A E B
I'll finally top the charts
